The Chinese Language Culture Education Foundation
(CLCEF) is a subsidiary of the Chinese School Association in the United States
(CSAUS) and herein is referred to as CSAUS.

The CSAUS was founded in 1994 and is a
non-profit organization comprised of over 400 Chinese schools across 50 states
in the USA.
The aggregate number of enrolled students in all the member schools is
approximately 200,000, and the number of faculty, staff and teachers totals
nearly 10,000 across the nation. Being one of the largest organizations in the
Chinese community, the CSAUS has been serving the Chinese schools, communities,
and thousands of Chinese families all over the United
States in promoting Chinese culture and language
education and strengthening the exchange and cooperation between the peoples of
the United States and China.

Over the 20 years since
its establishment, the CSAUS has disseminated Chinese cultural information to
people of all origins across the United States by running various
activities and events in diversified communities. Each year, the CSAUS has
organized various programs such as the China Homecoming Trip summer camps. The
Professional Teaching Expert Group is sent to train our Chinese school teachers
here in the US and provides, large-scale cultural and educational events like
cultural performance tours and the exchanges of international arts and
performances.

The CSAUS has established close ties with many
institutions and organizations in China ranging from the Oversea
Chinese Affair Office of the State Council, schools and cultural organizations,
industrial enterprises and entities in both public and private sectors. At the
same time, the CSAUS has also paid great attention to strengthening
relationships with various Chinese educational organizations across the U.S. and exploring potential cooperative
opportunities with other organizations in the U.S. as well. All of these have
expedited the process for CSAUS to evolve as one of the main streams in
American society. Deeply rooted in the philosophy of diversity with
multi-functional social effects and great growing potential, the CSAUS has been
drawing increasing attention and support from both China
and the United States.

The CLCEF-CSAUS is also a non-profit fundraising
organization whose establishment has emerged from the growth of CSAUS over 20
years following the trend of swift development of Chinese culture and language
education overseas. The CLCEF is now open to all sorts of donations and
contributions at home and abroad, be it from organizations or individuals. The
mission of the CLCEF is to promote both Chinese Culture and the development of
Chinese language education in the United States so as to strengthen
the Sino-American Cultural exchange. The scope of the CLCEF business is to fund
any programs related to the development of the Chinese language and cultural
education. We do this to aid any institutions or organizations that have
financial hardships and to support any public Chinese cultural and educational
events that will benefit all communities. CLCEF funds summer camp events for
all Chinese-learning students to reward outstanding personnel and institutions
or organizations that have made great contributions to the promotion of the
Chinese culture and language education. CLCEF also aims to fund any other
programs or projects aligned with CLCEFs mission.

The majority members of both CSAUS and CLCEF,
together with member-school management team members, teachers, parents, etc.
that have shaped the leadership of the CSAUS and CLCEF were formerly students
studying abroad from mainland China.
Their professional expertise covers a broad range of subjects in science,
technology, medicine, political science, economy, law, accounting and finance,
business administration and management, fine arts, education and more. An
increasing number of these experienced professionals have become corporate
leaders, senior scientists, engineers, university presidents, professors,
doctors, lawyers, and managers at various levels in their organizations. The
CSAUS expects to establish cooperative relationships with more organizations,
enterprise entities, professional firms and businesses so as to create
innovation in promoting and disseminating the Chinese language and culture
overseas in order to strengthen multi-dimensional exchanges between China and the United States.
